Git 2.25.2 Release Notes
|
||||
========================
|
||||
|
||||
Fixes since v2.25.1
|
||||
-------------------
|
||||
|
||||
* Minor bugfixes to "git add -i" that has recently been rewritten in C.
|
||||
|
||||
* An earlier update to show the location of working tree in the error
|
||||
message did not consider the possibility that a git command may be
|
||||
run in a bare repository, which has been corrected.
|
||||
|
||||
* The "--recurse-submodules" option of various subcommands did not
|
||||
work well when run in an alternate worktree, which has been
|
||||
corrected.
|
||||
|
||||
* Running "git rm" on a submodule failed unnecessarily when
|
||||
.gitmodules is only cache-dirty, which has been corrected.
|
||||
|
||||
* "git rebase -i" identifies existing commits in its todo file with
|
||||
their abbreviated object name, which could become ambigous as it
|
||||
goes to create new commits, and has a mechanism to avoid ambiguity
|
||||
in the main part of its execution. A few other cases however were
|
||||
not covered by the protection against ambiguity, which has been
|
||||
corrected.
|
||||
|
||||
* The index-pack code now diagnoses a bad input packstream that
|
||||
records the same object twice when it is used as delta base; the
|
||||
code used to declare a software bug when encountering such an
|
||||
input, but it is an input error.
|
||||
|
||||
* The code to automatically shrink the fan-out in the notes tree had
|
||||
an off-by-one bug, which has been killed.
|
||||
|
||||
* "git check-ignore" did not work when the given path is explicitly
|
||||
marked as not ignored with a negative entry in the .gitignore file.
|
||||
|
||||
* The merge-recursive machinery failed to refresh the cache entry for
|
||||
a merge result in a couple of places, resulting in an unnecessary
|
||||
merge failure, which has been fixed.
|
||||
|
||||
* Fix for a bug revealed by a recent change to make the protocol v2
|
||||
the default.
|
||||
|
||||
* "git merge signed-tag" while lacking the public key started to say
|
||||
"No signature", which was utterly wrong. This regression has been
|
||||
reverted.
|
||||
|
||||
* MinGW's poll() emulation has been improved.
|
||||
|
||||
* "git show" and others gave an object name in raw format in its
|
||||
error output, which has been corrected to give it in hex.
|
||||
|
||||
* Both "git ls-remote -h" and "git grep -h" give short usage help,
|
||||
like any other Git subcommand, but it is not unreasonable to expect
|
||||
that the former would behave the same as "git ls-remote --head"
|
||||
(there is no other sensible behaviour for the latter). The
|
||||
documentation has been updated in an attempt to clarify this.
|
||||
|
||||
Also contains various documentation updates, code clean-ups and minor fixups.
